There are two factories located at place $P$ and place $Q$. From these locations,a certain commodity is to be delivered to each of the three depots situated at $A, B$ and $C$. The weekly requirements of the depots are $5, 5$ and $4$ units respectively,while the production capacities of the factories at $P$ and $Q$ are $8$ and $6$ units respectively. The cost of transportation per unit is given below:
From/To$A$$B$$C$
$P$$160$$100$$150$
$Q$$100$$120$$100$

How many units should be transported from each factory to each depot in order that the transportation cost is minimum? What will be the minimum transportation cost?

  • A
    $1550$
  • B
    $1600$
  • C
    $1650$
  • D
    $1700$

$A$ fruit grower can use two types of fertilizer in his garden,brand $P$ and brand $Q$. The amounts (in $kg$) of nitrogen,phosphoric acid,potash,and chlorine in a bag of each brand are given in the table. Tests indicate that the garden needs at least $240 \, kg$ of phosphoric acid,at least $270 \, kg$ of potash,and at most $310 \, kg$ of chlorine.
If the grower wants to maximize the amount of nitrogen added to the garden,how many bags of each brand should be added? What is the maximum amount of nitrogen added?
Brand $P$ ($kg$ per bag)Brand $Q$ ($kg$ per bag)
Nitrogen$3$$3.5$
Phosphoric acid$1$$2$
Potash$3$$1.5$
Chlorine$1.5$$2$
